Does anyone know if there is a simple way to search for all the people who I have recorded as living in one county (or state or even country)?
I am finding that as I get more into the filling out of minute details, I am needing to collate together all of the people who lived in a certain county or state. And as a person might be located somewhere for an event other than a birth death or marriage, a three tiered search repeated dozens of times is not helpful when trying to cover any one of a multitude of event possibilities. I need to be able to collect everyone who has a county or state (or even as wide as a specific country) listed for me as a result of a single search return. I know that we can do an "Any date" search, but I can't see an "Any place" search. This kind of search is not possible by going to "locations" as that will only show people in specific towns, or other locations as specifically entered, it can not show me everyone who I have recorded as living in Angus Scotland (for example), it will show me Oathlaw Angus Scotland, or Brechin Angus Scotland, but not Angus Scotland (unless I have entered that location for someone without a more specific town, but even then it's only for that one or two people, not the possibly 150 who lived in Angus Scotland) I've submitted this as a feature request, but since we are unlikely to get any minor updates before Legacy 8 comes out, and this request might not even come out in the first few minor updates after that, I still need to find all of the people in one county in a quick and easy manner. Aside from the repeated searches with different criteria, is there ANY way I can do this with a minimum of fuss and bother?
